The Republicans, Progressive Labor
Party and Henry George in Action.
New York, Oct. S.-The political cam
paign was opened here tonight at CHECKER
ing Hall, where the Republicans had large
meeting which was addressed by Senator
Evarts, ex-Mayor Lowe, of Brooklyn, Col.
Fred ID. Grant and others.
In Paradise Park, in Five Points, DIR.
McGlynn addressed large crowd of Ital-
ians in their own language in the interest of
Henry George.
The Progressive Labor party held ratifi-
cation meeting tonight on the plaza at the
north side of Union square. The delegates
from the several districts marched to the
square in bodies, bearing torches, several
red flags and transparencies, with such
notices as these: "No harmony between
capital and labor, "More public schools and
less armories.n On reaching the plaza
they found that row of gas jets
usually lighted when massmeetings are held
there, were not lighted. This provoked
their anger, but it was much increased when
they were told by the park police that their
permit TO hold meeting did not entitle
them to speak from the platform of the cot
tage fronting on the plaza. A bitter wrangle
followed, and finally the police allowed the
speakers to mount the platform. The speak
ing chiefly consisted in abuse of the police,
and row occurred between the police and
the crowd. Several men were clubbed, but
no arrests were made.

COTTONS CONDITION.

Unusual Lightness in the Staple Re-
ported by Several States.
New ORLEANS, Oct. S.-The Cotton
Worlds report of the crop for the month of
September says:
The prominent feature of the last month has
been the almost unbroken continuation of dry,
warm weather, over pretty much the entire
belt, forcing the fruit to maturity, and enabling
the rapid gathering of the staple, and at the
same time destroying, except in a few sections,
any prospect for a crop. AS the result of
such conditions the quality of the prod
uct grades high, though in locali-
ties there is some complaint of recent
heavy rains damaging cotton, and in others of
depredations by worms. Many of our CORE
sDondents allude TO the unusual ghtneS5 of the
staple and the difficulty of making the usual
weight of bales The TWO Caroinas and Ala

JACKSONVILLE, FLA, Oct S.-The yell
low fever scare is fast dying out. When

the letter was not much to occasion ALARM
and he stated that every effort was being
made to keep the disease within Tampa.
The local Board of Health, however, has
issued the following order:
''No persons will be permitted in Jacksonville
from the south or west unless they hold health
certificate, signed by the Mayor, County Clerk,
Postmaster or Notary PUBLIC from their county,
to the effect that the holder has not been in or
near Tampa for fifteen days. If the certificate
is signed by Postmaster or Notary, the seal Of
the officer must be stamped on the certificate.
The prompt measures taken by the board
here have done much to allay the alarm.

CLEVELAND AN ANGLER.
THE SCENERY ON THE LAKE VERY
MUCH ENJOYED.

A Rain Storm Compels the Party to
Take Shelter in Neighboring Club
House-A Dinner Given by Gen.
Villas at His Home in the Evening.
MADISON, Wis, Oct. SIT was good
fishing weather to-day, and the President
and his companions went fishing on Lake
Medota. A steam launch conveyed them to
an island in the lake, whence they went to
the fishing grounds in small boats.
The Presidents fishing party returned at
6 o'clock tonight They had excellent luck,
and brought back between thirty and forty
good sized fish as trophies. They were car
ried by the steamer about four miles up the
lake to Maple Bluff, where they took small
boats, and each member of the party had
an oarsman to himself. They reached
the fishing ground and had been
fishing over an hour, when a high wind
arose and made it dangerous to remain out
longer, so they sought shelter at the Magnus
Rex Club house, near by, where four mem
bers of the club welcomed them and enter
tanned them at a fine lunch. The club house,
though a small, unpretentious wooden
structure, was elaborately decorated with
evergreens and otherwise.
OUT IN THE RAIN.
BY the time lunch was over the wind had
subsided, though light rain had set in,
which lasted all day The party, clad in
waterproof garments, betook themselves
again to the rowboats and continued their
sport until early dark. The President
caught eight black bass, two of the largest
weighing respectively four and a quarter
and four and half pounds. These were
the heaviest fish caught. The total catch
was twenty one black bass, thirteen pickerel
and few white bass and perch.
The President tished for black bass alone,
and Bill Dunn, his oarsman, and a local au-
thority on fishing matters, declares with
emphasis that he (the Presdent) certainly
does know how to handle the rod. The
President says he enjoyed the day immense
ly, and his admiration for the scenery of
Lake Mendoza is boundess The Presi-
dental party dined this evening with
Col. Villas, Prof. Chamberlain, Presi-
dent of the Wisconsin University,
and wife Col Knight and wife, and
b. j. Stevens and wife, Of Madison, being
invited to meet them. A public reception
was given by the President and Mrs. Cleve-
land, at the Villas mansion, between 8 and
/ o'clock this evening, to the citizens of
Madison. 1t has already been stated that
Postmaster General and Mrs Villas would
join the Presidential party here, but the
matter was not definitely determined until
to-day. They have now accepted the Presi-
dents invitation, and win accompany him
during the remainder of the journey.

on the Subject.

Health officer Smith Makes q Report
on the Subject.
NEW YORK, Oct. Stealth Officer
Smith has prepared brief report of the
cholera cases that We're thrust upon his
hands by the steamship Alesia, from Ma
pies. 1t states that the disease has been
very virulent and rapid in its fatality in
majority of cases. In several instances pa
tients were well at one inspection and nearly
pulseless twelve hours later. The report
also tells how the ship was fumigated.
1t was thoroughly washed with
boiling water twice, and after
ward with solution of corrosive
sublimate, two parts to one thousand of
water. All the clothing and textile fabrics
were soaked in boiling water for hours and
one hundred pounds of sulphur was twice
burned in the hold OF the eight cases re-
moved from the ship on her arrival five
died and three recovered. OF those which
have developed since removal to quaran-
tine, nine died, four recovered, five are
convalescent and the remaining two are
seriously ill. Dr. Smith thinks the infec-
ton is now entirely destroyed.
THE CAPTAIN ARRESTED.
Surveyor Beattie has preferred charges
against Capt. Wallet, of the steamship
Alesia, which arrived here from Naples two
weeks ago with cholera on board. 1t is
alleged that the captain did not provide
proper hospitals for his passengers, that he
failed to provide tables and seats for his
steerage passengers, and that in his
manifest of passengers he did not give the
cause of the death of passengers who died
on the passage Capt. Wallet was arraigned
before Commissioner Shields, and held in
IS, 900 for the grand jury.
A cable dispatch from Merida, Mexico,
saws that port has been closed against the
United States on account of the epidemic
of cholera in New York" No additional
deaths were reported to the quarantine
commissioners to-day. The agents of the
Alesia say that her misfortune has a dis
couraging effect on Italian emigration to
this country.
